Notes :Molin di Bucchio is the first mill you meet along the course of the Arno, in operation until 1960. Here there are still the tools used by millers, such as shovels, hoppers and millstones and the rooms still retain their original characteristics. This area is also linked to the history of the partisan resistance, as evidenced by the plaque dedicated to Pio Borri, the first partisan who fell in the territory of Arezzo. Finally, the activity of restarting the ancient trout farming, dating back to the late nineteenth century and active until the 70s, is underway.
